Hi all,
Assuming I have the necessary public liability insurance and appropriate PPE, without any formal CS certification, am I legally able to use a chainsaw on a self-employed basis to take care of some local residents property along with my normal gardening duties?
No climbing, just low level tidying up of fallen limbs and small trees. I would consider myself safe and proficient with experience gained from private use, and would not take on anything 'risky', other than of course the general risk of operating a chainsaw.
Any feedback would be welcome.
Many thanks,
Jim

Thank you very much for all of your input! Sounds like it is 'at my own risk', and that should anything go wrong, I may have some issues with insurance. I will decide at the time whether the risk is worth it.
